No rain. Global warming is ruining PR. Its about time everyone starting

Sometimes Terpstra or Chavanel wins.

But Boonen's a champ. And he's got time to score a fifth win.
It seems like he's been around forever but his first came at
a pretty young age.


Surprises:
Boonen was allowed to ride away with a teammate on normal asphalt with
no one marking him. I would have understood if it happened on on a
cobbled section since Boonen was clearly the strongest on cobbles.
Perhaps all the other riders had gone to the back to feed when he attacked.

The number of Frenchman in contention, If Chavanel hadn't punctured he
would have been up there at the finish, Turgot must have had the race of
his life and Ladagnous was as unlucky as Chavanel.
